Shadows of the Deep Space Chapter 1617: 525: Adding Insult to Injury 5
Previously on Shadows of the Deep Space...
A cold dread surged within Lorina's chest, prompting her to whirl around and rush toward Agolotto while crying aloud.
“Lord Agolotto, save me!”
Agolotto's features contorted, his voice rumbling deeply.
“Hedicate, lend me your strength.”
“Alright!”
Hedicate replied without hesitation.
Suddenly, the crimson eyes of the Pseudo-VI Generation Biological Mecha·Black Soul flared brightly, as the Kais biological reaction skyrocketed, the whole organism's cell structure expanding and hardening, while terrifying arcs of black lightning crackled across it.
The mecha morphed into a fearsome black streak of light, hurtling directly at Thunder Angel.
“Courting death! Thunder Strike!”
Mo Xiu's eyes narrowed sharply, urging Thunder Angel to surge ahead at full power.
A blue streak and a black streak smashed together amid the stars.
Boom!
In a flash, the starry void cracked like fragile glass, with arcs of blue and black lightning blanketing the whole region.
“Ah!”
Agolotto piloted the Black Soul Mecha, clenching his jaw to withstand the assault.
Right then, Mo Xiu maneuvered Thunder Angel, lifting the Thunder Pattern Blade from his left hand and slashing broadly at the Black Soul Mecha.
“Die!”
Crack!
A diagonal gash tore across the Black Soul Mecha's chest, sending it hurtling backward to slam into a Level 5 Battleship.
The Level 5 Battleship exploded apart completely, splitting right down the middle.
Mo Xiu directed Thunder Angel to glance at Lorina; in the next instant, the whole Thunder Angel disappeared.
“Watch out!”
Aus spotted the move, his forehead veins throbbing as he yelled.
Lorina's nerves stretched to their breaking point, and just then, a faint ripple stirred in the space to her right; she snapped her head that way and swung her Super Particle Light Blade in a cutting arc, only to cleave through nothing!
“Wrong judgment, die!”
Mo Xiu materialized from nowhere behind Lorina and cleaved the V Generation Mecha·Soul Devourer straight in two.
Boom!
A tremendous blast roared outward.
“Damn it!”
Enraged, Aus piloted the Pseudo-VI Generation Mecha·Master of Blood, becoming a crimson blood ray that barreled toward Mo Xiu from the rear.
Mo Xiu guided Thunder Angel, snapping its head up, as thunder patterns glowed across the mecha's frame, unleashing fierce lightning arcs that fanned out.
Aus's expression shifted in alarm, yet it was far too late; the lightning veil engulfed him at once.
The mecha shook wildly, its movements growing labored and slow.
Mo Xiu piloted Thunder Angel and blinked out of sight in an instant.
Aus's strike whiffed completely.
Next, Mo Xiu brought Thunder Angel into existence right behind Aus.
Aus instinctively detected the threat, abruptly twisting his mecha to face it.
Mo Xiu hoisted the Thunder Pattern Blade, surging with intense lightning arcs, and struck savagely at Aus.
Aus quickly raised his left arm to defend!
Crack!
The left arm got chopped clean off.
Aus urgently drove Master of Blood to fall back as far as possible, creating distance!
“Trying to escape, today is your death day!”
Killing intent blazing in Mo Xiu, he commanded Thunder Angel to barrel after Aus.
Aus's face warped, promptly launching the missile compartment and firing a Dark Matter Missile for a point-blank blast.
Boom!
A sun of black lightning arcs erupted, swallowing them both in its fury.
The following instant.
Aus steered the charred, lightning-ravaged Master of Blood into view far across the starry expanse.
Yet before Aus could recover, a lightning-arc-laden light streak burst from the blast, speeding straight for him!
“Damn it!”
Blood vessels webbed across Aus's eyes; he tried to evade, but failed to slip away.
Luckily, right then, Agolotto drove the Black Soul Mecha in with brutal force.
Mo Xiu was forced to pivot and confront Agolotto, their mechas colliding anew.
Aus grabbed the chance at once to pilot Master of Blood in withdrawal.
Just then, within the comms channel, Nozter's frantic voice echoed.
“Lord Aus, we can’t hold out much longer, the people of Sky Dome City are simply a bunch of lunatics. At this rate, instead of us annihilating them, they’ll annihilate us.”
“Damn, I know.”
Aus swiftly terminated Nozter's link, then initiated a comm request to the First Legion.
Meanwhile, amid the fog trailing Aus's forces, the 220-kilometer Star Destroyer·Evil Fang hovered, its prow resembling a projectile, clad in solid black armor etched with shadowy motifs, flanked by clusters of launch bays and defensive guns, trailed by a fleet of Level 5 Battleships and a Mech Formation.
Within the main control chamber of Star Destroyer·Evil Fang.
Deputy Corps Commander Geteri reclined casually in the command seat, observing the battle with ease.
A man in Junior General attire, with neatly combed hair and a powdered face, voiced his worry to Deputy Corps Commander Geteri.
“Sir, is this alright?”
“What’s not alright? Let the Third Blood Fang Legion, the Fifth Black Crow Corps, the Seventh Shadow Legion, and the Thirteenth Skull Legion wear them out. Our troops will flank them, this time we must let the people of Sky Dome City be completely annihilated, leaving none alive!”
Deputy Corps Commander Geteri declared confidently.
“Wise, Sir!”
Rogar praised right away.
In that instant, Aus's comm request flashed on the ops display.
“Sir, Aus Commander has sent a communication request, should we accept it?”
Rogar inquired promptly after noticing it.
“Accept it.”
Geteri smirked, responding to Rogar.
“Yes!”
Rogar affirmed swiftly.
Shortly, the link established, and Aus's hologram materialized before Geteri, demanding furiously.
“Geteri, what the hell are you doing! Why haven’t you acted yet?”
“Ah, we’re just worried that acting too early will make the prey escape. And what’s your rush? You have so many legions, are you unable to defeat them?”
Geteri remarked.
“Geteri, are you blind? This Third Legion is Sky Dome City’s ace legion, do you not realize how strong their combat power is?”
